The stay was amazing. The hosts made the process of booking and finding the property very easy. The home is comfortable and makes for an easy base to explore D-Day sights and the rest of Normandy. The town is quiet and lively, making for a relaxing stay in the Normandy countryside.

Normandy Vacation

Our family of 5 - 2 adults and 3 teens - had a very nice stay in Isabel's lovely cottage. The gardens on the property are beautiful and the location is quiet and blissful. It was a great home base as we toured the sites of Normandy and the D-Day invasion.

My wife and I absolutely loved this place. When you shut the gates, it’s like you are in your own little kingdom surrounded by beautiful floral and fruit gardens. The village is quite small, but very charming. Isabel was very quick to respond to all our needs and questions.

Our short stay to visit the Beaches

The situation of the house is perfect, so convenient for touring the area. The main house wasn’t occupied so we had privacy and access to the very beautiful garden.The house was very clean but felt tired and dated. The kitchen was tiny and very badly equipped, hazy glasses, not enough mugs, no pan lids, few utensils. Bedrooms were fine but again very simple, only one very thin pillow each and old looking linen.

The property was great. The property owners/managers were not very honest people. We booked for 2 nights initially, and later booked an additional night. When our plans changed well within the cancelation period I wished to cancel the 3rd night. The owner was not helpful doing this, so VBRO got involved and I was told the owner would contact me for the cancelation. When I was contacted by the owner she said there was a 3 night minimum. I responded by saying, that's not true, I originally had a 2 night stay booked. At that point she did not respond. So we ate the 3rd night. Like I said not very honest.

Comfortably Beautiful

Thierry and Isabel’s house was lovely and sparkling clean. Unfortunately the weather was not in our favor to have enjoyed their magnificent gardens where we could have sat to enjoy. So we took second best and admired them through the large glass windows as we had our breakfast and in the evening sipping our appertifs. The beds were very welcoming after spending a long day combing the Beaches and enjoying Asnelles and Arramanches. Thank you, Isabel and Thierry, for providing your lovely home. It added to our French experience.

Perfect for our family visit to Normandy

Traveling with our three young adult children and two of their friends, this lovely renovated stone building is situated in a beautiful garden with lots of space. The ping pong table under cover but outdoors, the patio and great room were ideal for hanging out with our family or for the young folks to play games and talk into the wee hours. The house is a stone's throw from the "Canadian" beaches and walking distance from a grocery store, bakery, restaurant as well as 20 minutes' pretty country drive to Bayeux. We had a wonderful time, cooked dinner one night in the compact but fully equipped kitchen and slept like babies after all the activities in stunning Normandy. We hope to be back for a longer visit another time!

It is charming, relaxing, beautiful, quiet, historical. The cottage and gardens and landscaping are beautiful. Excellent location for enjoying Normandy. Only note to be aware of is very small washer and with rain/humidity clothes do not dry well on provided rack. Would definitely book again.

Ein schönes Domizil mit sehr freundlichen und hilfsbereiten Gastgebern. Wunderschöner Garten und gut ausgestattete Zimmern. Die Küche ist recht klein und hat ihre Besonderheiten, die man kennenlernen muss, um zurecht zu kommen. (z.B. Backofen geht nur in Kombination mit dem Wecker an, Waschmaschine ist nur mit viel Kraft zu öffnen) Insgesamt ein großzügiger Ort, um Urlaub zu machen.

Excellent séjour

La maison est pleine de charme et nous nous y sommes sentis très bien tout de suite. Tout était adapté pour les enfants de 3 et 4 ans et le jardin est superbe avec les activités proposées (balançoire et tennis de table). De plus la proximité de la mer est vrai plus et les commerces aux alentours sont de très bonne qualité.

Vacances en Normandie

Maison très agréable, literie impeccable, salles de bains fonctionnelles. Un seul reproche sur le manque de wc au rez-de-chaussée et la cuisine un peu petite et son équipement sommaire. Pour 2 personnes comme nous, ça allait mais pour une famille nombreuse ou plusieurs couples (comme le permet le nombre de chambres), ça peut être plus compliqué. Il serait temps de remplacer la télé (même pas une prise HDMI). Les jardins sont superbes, très agréable de manger dehors, la voiture bien garée et protégée. La personne chargée des relations a toujours été très disponible et réactive.

Romantisches großzügiges Anwesen in Meernähe

Am Rande einer kleinen Ortschaft am Meer fanden wir versteckt hinter hohen Mauern ein großzügiges, anheimelndes Anwesen mit hoher Wohlfühlkomponente. Der ehemalige Bauernhof wurde aufwändig renoviert, das authentische Ambiente blieb vollständig erhalten. Die gepflegte Gartenanlage mit wunderschöner Bepflanzung und vielfältigen Sitznischen mochte man kaum verlassen. Wenn wir es doch taten, waren wir nach einem kurzen Fußweg durch den kleinen, historisch wirkenden Ort an dem breiten Strand der Gold Beach mit den Resten des künstlichen Hafens, der für die Befreiungsaktionen des 6. Juni angelegt worden war. Das Haus selber, der ehemalige Kuhstall, war geschmackvoll und mit viel antikem Flair eingerichtet - die moderne Heizung funktionierte hervorragend. Im Obergeschoss gab es vier gemütliche Schlafräume und 2 Badezimmer. Das Eigentümer-Ehepaar war einige Tage auf dem weitläufigen Gelände anwesend, dabei jedoch dezent und herzlich zugleich.Insgesamt zwei wundervolle Urlaubswochen. (Einziger kleiner Makel: Das W-LAN war etwas langsam.)

Très jolie maison confortable...

La maison d'Isabelle et Thierry est très agréable, tout est fait pour passer un bon séjour, literie confortable, livres, jardin superbe... De plus, la mer est très proche avec une plage où se baigner est sans problème...le village est joli et pratique pour des courses en même temps... Nous restons sur une bonne impression générale.

Next time need to stay for 2 weeks, not 2 days!

I had a marvelous visit to this home and the Normandy area. The house was even more adorable than pictured. Thierry had great communication and was waiting to meet us on arrival, even though we had given him a wide 2 hour arrival window. He showed us how to use the gate and covered parking area, and gave a tour of the four (!) gardens on the grounds, the house, and even had a bottle of local cider and cookies out for us. The house was beautiful: the main level had a living room, kitchen (with washing machine and dish washer), and dining area. The second floor had (1) a massive bedroom with vaulted ceilings and a king size bed, (2) a large bedroom with 2 twin beds converted to a king, (3) another large bedroom with 2 twin beds converted to a king, (4) a small bedroom with a twin bed--likely best for a small child only, and 2 bathrooms--one with a shower, and the other with a tub with shower attachment. Everything was clean, comfortable and lovely. My only regret is not having more time to spend here. It was an easy 10 min walk to "town" on the Anselle Normandy beach, with 1 market, a bread shop, and a restaurant (exceptional food!). We would definitely stay again. 1h45min to Mont San Michelle 35 min to Omaha Beach 30 min to Bayeux tapestry Thank you!

A welcome relief

After a loud weeks in Paris and London, this beautiful quiet home was a delight. The roses were gorgeous and the home exceeded description.. We found the location convenient to explore the D-day beaches. The home could not have been better. It would be important to point out the bedrooms are up a narrow staircase and not for the mobility challenged. Also, if you plan to do much cooking, plan to stop in Caen or Bayaux for provisions— the choices in Anselles are limited.

Country Chateau

We loved everything about our stay here, just wished it had been longer. The hosts met us to go over the home and couldn’t have been more delightful. We felt spoiled having coffee in the morning in their gardens and were thrilled with walking proximity to restaurants and Gold Beach. There was a welcome gift of regional cider and local cookies which was such a thoughtful gesture not to mention delicious. Thank you for your every kindness and hospitality.

A beautiful week in Normandy.

Lovely property and plenty of room. Other than very spotty WiFi and running toilet, it was very comfortable. We appreciated the Sable cookies and cidre upon arrival as well as the amenities left for us in the kitchen. Thierry was very warm an welcoming and we would definitely make a return visit!!! Normandy is parfait!!!!

Wonderful house, wonderful hosts

The perfect home base for touring Omaha Beach, the Normandie cemetery, Arromanches, Pointe du hoc, Bayeux, and many other areas of the Normandie region. The home is large, well appointed, and has so much history. The gardens are incredible. My wife could have stayed at the home looking at them for hours. Your hosts Isabel and Thierry are so warm and friendly. Hearing their stories about the home, gardens and area was as entertaining as anything we did during our trip. Highly recommended. Oh, one thing, if you drive - and you should, as it's really the best way to view Normandie - there is parking at the home, but the driveway is a couple doors down from the front entrance to the home. It fooled us at first, but we eventually figured it out. :) A great place to stay.

Charming, beautiful slice of French country life by the sea.

Wonderful house and gardens centrally located in the Normandie region. Easy access to all the landing beaches, monuments and towns. Winding country roads lead to small towns on the sea, each charming and full of history. Each path leads to explore something unique. The house is beautiful and comfortable, well appointed with all conveniences. We spent more time outdoors in the fantastic garden than we did indoors! Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone traveling to this province. Asnelles is a quiet and welcoming village, and Isabel and Thierry are gracious hosts!
